bats brew Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 https://soundcloud.com/bats-brew/michaels-house-instrumental brand new original. this is an instrumental version of a lyrical song in working on now. i recently picked up a new fuzz, a Barber Exacta, and this version of the song was just for me to try different settings of the fuzz! njoy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Quite a nice sound @Batsbrew I do wonder if the drums are a little too busy around the 2:20 mark, could just be me. Nice sound though and the mix sounds reasonable here, is this a first pass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, don't need no stinkin' drums! this version will not be messed with, because i'm actively working on the vocal version of it, which will sound quite a bit different than this one. but i have a bout of bronchitus right now, so wont be singing for a while! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daryl1968 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 great playing and tones as usual mate. It maybe my imagination but is it a little light on the lower end? ....and, yes drums are a bit busy for my tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I was feeling cranky (hadn't had my frosted flakes) I'll have a listen on my studio monitors later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I was feeling cranky (hadn't had my frosted flakes) I'll have a listen on my studio monitors later it's good to know... i did a hard rolloff at 45hz, it helps make the low end more clear for my kind of mix, but if i extended that down to at least past 40hz, i could get some of the 'deep' back. i have sub kick track, that peaks at 55hz, i've experimented a lot with much lower sub (35) and it just doesn't work for my mixes. with a more wide open mix, like the "pali face" mix, i could probably get away with it. thanks man, this is good info.

Douglas Kirby Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 That was a cool jam - I really liked the wah-wah - excellent guitar playing as usual. As far as the lower end is concerned, in my opinion, it sounds more like a 70's or 80's rock mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie Jarvis Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 That's no alternative rock, that's a space station! Metal fusion at it's best, a joy to listen to! Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill ha! alternative.... i guess i just pick that genre, because it's kinda generic, covers many bases... but yea, for instrumental like this, maybe another genre is really required! hey, thanks for checking it out, and commenting on it. metal fusion!
